I have a strange relationship with horror. I consider it one of my guilty pleasures, but I’m also a huge wuss when it comes to things jumping out at me. So, while I enjoy a good horror movie, I’ve never been really big into actually…

‘No dead weight, just pure bosses!’ That ably sums up Dead from indie developer Milo Games. This top-down shooter skips the waiting and goes straight for the end-game with ten deadly bosses to defeat. Boss battle games certainly seem to be in vogue at the…
I love goblins. This traditional fantasy villain race just has a bad reputation. Sure, they’re a chaotic band of miscreants bent on mischief, but they can be so much more. Goblins of Elderstone is a city building game, taking this often abused group and painting them as…
Developer, inXile, delivered the massively successful Wasteland 2 under the direction of Brian Fargo, and now Wasteland 3 is on the way. Set to release on PC, Mac, PS4, Xbox One, and quite refreshingly Linux (for those of us like yours truly running Ubuntu). The crowdfunding campaign just launched…
It’s still amazing that a crowdfunding campaign sprouted out of nowhere for a game nearly a decade old. It was only in May 2016 that Edge of Twilight made a triumphant return on Indiegogo. Its developer, Fuzzyeyes, needed funding to finally bring the game out…
Spooky mansions. Every town has one, and everyone talks about that one time they totally checked it out, only to be thoroughly spooked by the Totally-For-Real-Ghosts inside. If you’re too afraid to explore such a mansion for real, then Manorkept, which recently launched on Kickstarter, will…
I take queer themed games seriously, so when I see one that seems to be poking fun at the gay community I get ready to rip into it. As I read Queer Quest’s pitch I thought this would be one such situation, but looks can be deceiving….
Developer, VIS-Games is returning to its atmospheric horror background with, Pineview Drive – Rising Storm. The original Pineview Drive and mini-prequel, Passing Pineview Forest were criticized for lackluster story elements. This time VIS plans to delve deeper into Pineview’s lore with Rising Storm. To help pull this…
A fair warning, a lot of law stuff is about to be spat out. If you have an aversion to that sort of thing, you might just want the highlights. That would be that the SEC (the US Securities and Exchange Commission) has ruled Fig…
Project Automata is a “bring a hard hat and lunch pail to work,” blue collar kind of game. It gets the job done competently, but – no offense to blue collar workers out there – it’s not exactly the most exciting spectacle around. It’s similar…
Crowdfunding enthusiasts in and around New York, rejoice! On Saturday October 29th, Kickstarter will be hosting their first-ever crowdfunded games festival. Dubbed, Ghost Arcade, the festival will be a Halloween-themed celebration of Kickstarter’s gaming community. Wear your costume Ghost Arcade will be free and open…
In these difficult times, it’s only natural to question humanity. We’ve seen the worst in ourselves all over the world in 2016. The sooner this year is over, the better as far as many are concerned. But there’s at least one hurdle we must still…
Did you ever wish you could be a Viking? But, you know… without the whole “glorious death” thing weighing it down? Iron Tides, which recently launched on Kickstarter, has you covered. There’s a demo if you’d like to try the game before pledging. We’ve covered…
Taking matters into your own hands happens one turn at a time in Vigilantes, an upcoming tactical RPG now on Kickstarter. With more than a passing resemblance to modern XCOM titles, Vigilantes frames its gritty film noir story with turn-based combat encounters and party building. Characters come with…
You might not have heard of Furcadia before, despite it being the longest-running MMO ever. It was initially released in 1996, long before many people had a steady internet connection. I wasn’t even on dial-up yet at that point. Despite the game’s history, it’s never…
I normally don’t like playing isometric arcade-y type games. It doesn’t mean I won’t, though. These days I need to have something unique to at least capture my attention. Antraxx is certainly an interesting concept, and one I might look further into. It’s an online mech…
